“Justin house sat and watched our two dogs ( a Bernese and a Frenchie) for two weeks and was fantastic! This was the most time our dogs have been without us and it was important for us to have someone reliable watching them. Justin spent ample time with our dogs, took them on walks and was with them consistently without any extended gaps. Justin was very conscientious in our home and cleaned completely at the end of the stay (including the refrigerator!). I highly recommend Justin for pet sitting!”

“Paula is an absolute gem! She is a wonderful and experienced cat mama and went above and beyond to make sure my sweet kitty got all the love and snuggles and care while I was away for the weekend. Paula is an incredible communicator, quick to respond, and kept me up to date with photos and information along the way. She took great care to notice my kitty’s sneezing and alerted me to potential health concerns. I felt so confident knowing Cosmo was in loving and attentive hands. Paula also went above and beyond to keep the house clean and orderly (laundry, dishes) and would whole heartedly recommend her services to anyone! Your pets (and home) will be in best of hands!”

She sent daily updates with photos, kept my dog’s routine consistent, and even gave extra snuggles,. When I returned, my dog was calm, happy, and clearly well cared for.”

Kanna got to go on a really long walk at a local park which she surely loved. Quinn super exceeded my expectations in all areas and I'm grateful they could watch kanna for her first time in a new house while I was away.”

Liberty and Caleb are terrific pet sitters that we highly recommend! We engaged them for two weeks and we received updates and photos every day. We had real peace of mind on our international trip as a result of their consistent communications, as well as the many "proof of fun" pics of our pets. Our condo was neat, tidy and clean when we returned. The building concierge and several residents gave them high marks as well. We look forward to our next engagement with Liberty and Caleb!

This was my first trip away from Milo in 3 years since his brother got sick and passed. Kate was wonderful leading up to the stay to ensure Milo was comfortable, well fed, and kept current on his meds. Milo was so well taken care of that we could enjoy our vacation! We are so grateful that she took care of Milo while we were gone especially considering he’s on lots of meds and a prescription diet. Thank you again so much! And hope you’ll be able to watch him again in the future.

Russell took the time to meet us and our dog before we confirmed the reservation. Our herding breed dog is picky about people and it was nice to know that she could meet him first. Russell's stay was great - he sent updates and videos to keep us in the loop. he also dealt with minor issues with grace (front door keypad not working) and took care of trash, bringing in packages, etc. The house was in great shape when we returned.

My dogs seemed to love Paige! They were calm and happy when I returned. She communicated perfectly throughout the stay and left my home spotless. She sent pictures and even accommodated my annoying standby flight situation by staying a few extra hours to make sure the dogs got fed before I returned.

Serenity was amazing throughout the entire Rover process, from the first home visit to providing daily updates and then making sure the home was clean when we got back. She really took time to learn our dog and help us understand what we can work on in training for the future to make things more comfortable for dog sitting. We appreciate everything she did and would be happy to have her dog sit again!

My kitties were well cared for. This was the longest stay to date and Kathleen asked thoughtful questions regarding care of my kitties and home, which hadn’t pertained previously. Kathleen kept me updated each day and sent photos of relaxed, happy cats. She responded promptly to my communications. I returned home to a clean house.
